This was not always the case. Women in particular were excluded from many areas of public discourse. Reaching back into the 19th century, the distinction between public and private spheres was an ideological one. As men moved out of the home to work and acquired increasing power, the public world inhabited by men became identified with influence and control, the private with moral value and support.

There is a growing interest in Contemporary Art, yet the ideas and theo- retical frameworks which inform its practice can be complex and difficult to access. By focusing on a number of key headings, such as Conceptual Art, Installation Art and Performance Art, this series of talks is intended to provide a broad overview of some of the central themes and directions in Modern and Contemporary Art. This series represents a response to a number of challenges. Firstly, the 03 inherent problems and contradictions that arise when attempting to outline or summarise the wide-ranging, constantly changing and contested spheres of both art theory and practice, and secondly, the use of summary terms to describe a range of practices, many of which emerged in opposition to such totalising tendencies.

  • Dorothy Cross Dorothy Cross B
    Kerlin Gallery Dorothy Cross Dorothy Cross b. 1956, Cork, Ireland Like many of Dorothy Cross’ sculptures, Family (2005) and Right Ball and Left Ball (2007) sees the artist work with found objects, transforming them with characteristic wit and sophistication. Right Ball and Left Ball (2007) presents a pair of deflated footballs, no longer of use, their past buoyancy now anchored in bronze. Emerging from each is a cast of the artist’s hands, index finger extended upwards in a pointed gesture suggesting optimism or aspiration. In Family (2005) we see the artist’s undeniable craft and humour come together. Three spider crabs were found, dead for some time but still together. The intricacies of their form and the oddness of their sideways maneuvres forever cast in bronze. The ‘father’ adorned with an improbable appendage also pointing upwards and away. --- Working in sculpture, film and photography, Dorothy Cross examines the relationship between living beings and the natural world. Living in Connemara, a rural area on Ireland’s west coast, the artist sees the body and nature as sites of constant change, creation and destruction, new and old. This flux emerges as strange and unexpected encounters. Many of Cross’ works incorporate items found on the shore, including animals that die of natural causes. During the 1990s, the artist produced a series of works using cow udders, which drew on the animals' rich store of symbolic associations across cultures to investigate the construction of sexuality Dorothy Cross Right Ball and Left Ball 2007 cast bronze, unique 34 x 20 x 19 cm / 13.4 x 7.9 x 7.5 in 37 x 19 x 17 cm / 14.6 x 7.5 x 6.7 in DC20407A Dorothy Cross Family 2005 cast bronze edition of 2/4 dimensions variable element 1: 38 x 19 x 20 cm / 15 x 7.5 x 7.9 in element 2: 25 x 24 x 13 cm / 9.8 x 9.4 x 5.1 in element 3: 16 x 15 x 13 cm / 6.3 x 5.9 x 5.1 in DC17405-2/4 Dorothy Cross b.

  • The Gerry Ryan Show on 2FM and the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales a Case-Study, September 1997
    The Gerry Ryan Show on 2FM and The Death of Diana, Princess of Wales A Case-Study, September 1997 "Study submitted in part fulfillment of the requirement for the award of Master of Arts Degree in Communications & Cultural Studies” NAME: Ciara Me Carrón DATE: 6th February 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to the staff of Dublin City University for their understanding and support throughout my course of study, especially Stephanie MacBride. Thanks also to Clare Byrne, Majella Breen, Niall Me Gowan and The Gerry Ryan Show programme team in 2FM. I would further like to acknowledge my gratitude to my family, especially my father, Billy Me Carron for their patience whilst I completed my studies. Finally, this project is dedicated to the loving memory of my mother, Anne Me Carron, who died 11th November, 1997, RIP. SYNOPSIS In the modem world, there are a proliferation of media choices available to the discerning, (and not so discerning), audience. It is a rare moment indeed when, in the crowded television, radio and print media schedules, something approaching a united front occurs, and only one subject is debated, only one topic is talked about, everywhere. The number of times this has happened could be counted on the fingers of one hand. The death of Diana, Princess of Wales was one such media moment. For those of us who were not around for the death and funeral of John F. Kennedy, this was the first media-event we experienced, in terms of the tragic death and funeral of such a world famous person.
